The Book of Santa mobile slot is full of festive cheer and traditional gameplay. But isn’t that what Christmas is all about? Traditions?
Have you been Naughty or Nice? Only Santa’s book knows the answer, and what presents you get under the tree will be 100% dependent on that Book.
Because the Book is both the wild and the scatter symbol. In one way it replaces all the other symbols on any of the 10 paylines, on the other getting 3 on the reels will trigger 10 glorious free spins.
During those Book of Santa bonus games, you’ll get one symbol chosen to expand and cover the whole reel. It will pay regardless of whether it’s on a payline or left to right on the reels.
The name is no incident. If you think this sounds like the Book of Ra Deluxe 10 slot or the Book of Cleopatra game, or the Book of Dead by Play’n GO.
There’s a lot of these around and for good reason. The paytable is generous and the free spins are thrilling, especially when you hit the right scatter symbol to expand.
If you get mid-value symbols, you can walk away with 100x your bet on a good Book of Santa bonus round. If you get one of the higher value symbols, that can be as much as 5,000x your bet.
Stakelogic does many good slot games. But what they don’t do well, is create great graphics and animations, especially on mobile slot machines.
The graphics feel a little fuzzy, and the animations are basic at best. But it does have that Christmas feel. Santa is the highest paid symbol, and then you have Rudolph, the gingerbread symbol and stocking.
Finally, you have Ace to 10 in the shape of a wreath. It’s festive. It’s pretty. But you’ll forget about it all after December 25th. And even then there are prettier Christmas slots online.

Wild/Scatter: Santa's Naughty or Nice book is both the wild and the scatter symbol. 3 or more anywhere in view triggers the free spins, but they can also be used to replace other symbols in a payline to create a win.
Free Spins: 3 or more scatter symbols trigger 10 free spins, with one symbol chosen to expand and cover the reel. This will also pay regardless of whether it's on one of the 10 paylines.
The Book of Santa slot on mobile is a decent game of it's kind. You have just the right amount of wins, the RTP is good and the betting range is ok - though high limit players will need to go somewhere else.
Stakelogic, however, are not known for their brilliant graphics or animations, and this feels a little dated in look. Which makes sense when you consider that it's based on a 20+-year-old slot in the Book of Ra slot game.
So if you love the genre and want to add a little festive twist to your 'Book of' Game, play on Book of Santa, because come January, we will be playing on almost any other game such as the Book of Bob slot.
